Fish protein consumption exerts beneficial metabolic effects on human health, also correlat-ing with a decreased risk for cardiovascular disease. Fish waste contains high amount of proteins and utilization may offer the opportunity for generating …

We presently show that sEH knockout repressed nicotine-induced arterial stiffness and extracellular matrix remodeling via SIRT1-induced YAP deacetylation, which highlights that sEH is a potential therapeutic target in smoking-induced arterial stiffness …

High-frequency equipment is characterized by ultrasound probes with frequencies of over 10 MHz. At higher frequencies, the wavelength decreases, which determines a lower penetration of the ultrasound beam so as to offer a better evaluation of the surface …

We investigated whether maladaptive, age-associated changes in heart structure and function were linked to circulating testosterone levels. Male C57BL/6 mice had a gonadectomy (GDX) or sham surgery at 4 weeks and effects of GDX on the heart were examined …

Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is one of the leading causes of heart failure in patients with diabetes mellitus, with limited effective treatments. The cardioprotective effects of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2(SGLT2) inhibitors have been supported by …

Cardiovascular disease, particularly coronary heart disease (CHD), is one of the diseases with the highest fatality. The close correlation between long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and the occurrence and development of myocardial injury has been highlighted …

Background: Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a heterogeneous disease presenting a substantial challenge to clinicians. Currently, there is no safe and efficacious HFpEF treatment. In this study, we reported a standardized herbal …

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) observed during respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) bronchiolitis is associated with morbidity and mortality, especially in children with congenital heart disease. Yet, the pathophysiological mechanisms of RSV-associated PH …

On the one hand, sustained β-adrenergic stress is a hallmark of heart failure (HF) and exerts maladaptive cardiac remodelling. On the other hand, acute β-adrenergic stimulation maintains cardiac function under physiological stress. However, it is still …

Dual-specificity phosphatases (DUSPs) serve critical roles in the regulation of mitogen-activated protein kinases, but their functions in the cardiovascular system remain poorly defined. Here, we provide evidence that DUSP5, which resides in the nucleus …
